THIS MAY TRIGGER OTHERS-NatalieS is back

THIS MAY TRIGGER OTHERS-NatalieS is back

Hi everyone, NatalieS is back . I've had issues with logging in, so many thanks to Nik for assisting me get back on line.

THIS MAY TRIGGER OTHERS.

My intention is not to trigger others, so will understand if this post needs to be edited or altered.

I've really missed the forum people, and the support they offer, as I've been dealing with a number of difficult issues and feel totally isolated. (multi childhood trauma, caring for my chronically ill husband while our relationship continues to disintegrate, working through a number issues with my psychologist who reminds me I can email or message her any time and she will get back to me when she can, continuing to build my support network at work and on a 24/7 counselling line despite me being a lone wolf, and trying to keep myself heatlhy and safe.) This is the place I feel safest and best able to say what's going on...and I realise I'm not alone, which in many ways comforts me as I so often think I don't fit in or belong anywhere.

Thankyou.

Re: THIS MAY TRIGGER OTHERS-NatalieS is back

Thanks @Zoe7, it's great to be back....I was finding it really difficult to find support out there, sometimes when I really needed someone to vent to or just to say "hi", there was noone there...and that's when things can get scarey and out of control. Everyone here shows such compassion for one another and listens without judging.

Re: THIS MAY TRIGGER OTHERS-NatalieS is back

Thanks @Former-MemberI had such a good sleep last night because I was surrounded by my virtual family and felt really secure, something that's been missing for quite some time. It's difficult out there, sometimes it seems like I'm forever trying to explain me or my behaviour or the way I am ..... to those I choose to let into my world. But here I'm accepted as I am. No need to explain to anyone.

Hoping your day is a good one.
